Property Overview

Back available due to breakdown in buyers chain. An exciting and increasingly rare development and investment opportunity to acquire two stone barns in the picturesque area of Swiss Valley, Llanelli. The potential to create such unique and individual properties in the Llanelli area does not arise very often. Redundant farm buildings are becoming a rarity, whilst obtaining planning approval for residential conversion is proving increasingly difficult.

The two traditional detached stone barns each with planning consent for conversion to two four bedroom smallholdings are set in a quarter acre plot within eight and seven acres of land. Further land is available by separate negotiation. The barns are located three miles north of Llanelli town in West Wales.

Farm buildings in the Carmarthenshire area tend to be simple traditional structures built in stone, with few openings and plain pitched roofs, usually covered with slates. The majority form part of a steading complex where individual buildings such as the barn, cart shed, granary, horsemill, and farmhouse are laid out in an arrangement, usually around a courtyard....

LOCATION
The barns are located just three miles north of Llanelli town in West Wales, in the beautiful semi-rural area of Swiss Valley. Only four miles from Junction 48 of the M4 and ideally positioned for commuting between Swansea, Carmarthen and Cardiff.

These beautiful barns are within a courtyard setting and have their own private access off a quiet village lane. The courtyard to the front of the two properties allows for plenty of access for parking and turning. Both barns have elevated views of the surrounding countryside.

The barns are also within nine miles of the award wining Cefn Sidan Beach, Pembrey Motor Racing Circuit and Country Park and just a few miles from the first horse racing course to be built in the UK for 75 years.

OUTSIDE
Each barn sits in a very generous plot with its own 1/4 acre garden within eight and seven acres of land which borders the Upper Lliedi Reservoir.

THE BARNS
Both barns are constructed from traditional welsh stone and are structurally sound and water tight.

The vendors have gained detailed planning consent for each barn for conversion to either residential and/or holiday let accommodation, both with double garages.

There are detailed structural engineers reports for both buildings, along with artists' impressions of the completed barns and architectural plans indicating floor layouts together with elevation drawings.
